For those of you who don't know, Jimmy (The Rev) wrote this song. He knew he was going to die earlier than most people. I don't think he thought it what be as young as 28 but he knew it wouldn't be the normal age for people to die. The reason he would die early is because he had an enlarged heart, so when he wrote the song he put in the line "I need another chance to live" on purpose. It honestly made me cry when I heard him say it.
***** First of all its Fiction, not friction, and I know that. I didn't say he wrote afterlife right before he died. He wrote the song in 2007 when the were coming out with there 4th album.
For those who didnt know, this beautiful song and lyrics were written by Jimmy 'The Rev' Sullivan. Thank u Jimmy for this amazing song, the entire song is a fuckin masterpiece, especially that chorus
@@pattysmusic524the audio mixing for this live performance was absolutely botched by the audio team of the whole event. The lead guitar (Syn) was much lower than everyone else and the balancing was all over the place
okay so that 3:57 bit surpassed the father-son kamehameha point on the scale of the hair raising chill meter. he just did a friggin dual scream with an angel. love you Jimmy! \m/
ItsRobNotBob the main reason he carried out the scream in the lbc version was so that the rev could go back to drumming for the solo while Matt did the scream
Its a stellar performance, n I might may have not acc noticed that.. haven't heard this song in a while, but I like how they had the revs vocal dubs play out live still .. just have to ! Ofc but yeah I'd probably do the same if I were M! Always impressed how emotionaly charged music that brings me to tears can be.. Afterlife, now as a dedication track for the rev, among a few others So far away N Seize the day really tear me up most of the time Gunslinger too.. like a modern metal ballad .. Stoked for the new material boss!!!
i love arin, he's such a good addition to the band. no one said he's trying to replace Rev, and I'm sure he doesnt want to replace him; just make him proud.
I can't even begin to imagine what it must feel like to have the voice of your fallen comrade scream "I need another chance to live" right behind you just a couple of month after his death. Impressive how these guys managed to handle this.
@ Nacho Stibel "This next song is called Afterlife, it goes out to our brother who's up in heaven right now.. The Rev.. this one's for you buddy. The last time we played at Rock Am Ring, he was here with us..... Rev we love you." (During song intro) "Here we go!!... every mother fucker, romp up & down with me right now!!"
This song is my all time favorite song, and the fact they kept his vocals and Shadows saying "Jimmy, I miss you" in the chorus brings tears to my eyes every time...
Like walking into a dream, so unlike what you've seen. So unsure but it seems, 'cause we've been waiting for you. Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste. Of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway. I see a distant light, but girl this can't be right. Such a surreal place to see so how did this come to be, Arrived too early. And when I think of all the places I just don't belong, I've come to grips with life and realize this is going too far. I don't belong here, we gotta move on dear, escape from this afterlife. 'Cause this time I'm right to move on and on, far away from here. A place of hope and no pain, perfect skies with no rain. Can leave this place but refrain, 'cause we've been waiting for you. Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste. Of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway. This peace on earth's not right (with my back against the wall). No pain or sign of time (I'm much too young to fall). So out of place don't wanna stay, I feel wrong and that's my sign. I've made up my mind. Gave me your hand but realize I just wanna say goodbye. Please understand I have to leave and carry on my own life. I don't belong here, I gotta move on dear, escape from this afterlife. 'Cause this time I'm right to move on and on, far away from here. Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you. This place full of peace and light, and I'd hoped you might, Take me back inside, when the time is right. Loved ones back home all crying 'cause they're already missing me. I pray by the grace of God that there's somebody listening. Give me a chance to be that person I wanna be. (I am unbroken, I'm choking on this ecstasy.) Oh Lord I'll try so hard but you gotta let go of me (Unbreak me, unchain me, I need another chance to live.) [Screaming and maniacal laughter] I don't belong here, I gotta move on dear, escape from this afterlife. 'Cause this time I'm right to move on and on, far away from here. Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you. This place full of peace and light, and I'd hoped you might, Take me back inside, when the time is right.

***** what are you a dumbass? aarins a shitty drummer, he wont ever even get close to how the rev was, hell, aarin says lars ulirch is the best metal drummer even and is his idol, lars isn't even the best drummer in metallica, aarin wont ever take the place of the rev
Joshua Peterson I love REV . He was a fucking genius . But knock it off big boy you dont even have balls to go on that stage and play with a band like sevenfold . Im sure you would black the fuck out . Arin is NOT AT REVS SEAT ! He is just another fact that helps Sevenfold move . So shut the fuck up
pay attention that matt always have sunglasses during this song,,, can you think how he feels everytime he hearing The Rev singing '' I need another chance to live!!! '' ?
Damn, you can feel the emotion in Shadows' voice.
Yes, it's so raw...
+jibar ava One of his most powerful screams also
Love that they still use the revs vocals
Gotta love his vocals
It's called respect (and maybe completing the song but still...)
Gives me chills
Indeed. A very nice little touch.
Coz no one can cover his vocal
The voice of Matt at this show was so perfect
someone said that ever since jimmy, rev, died his voice has become weaker..
I think its still powerfull and fucking good
@@Eddielevit Staff's mix is getting worse.
@@Eddielevit You can hear the pain in his voice while he is singing or, atleast for me, he sounds kinda sad in this live
@@lezamafonsecaeinargael3692 Especially bc they use jimmy's vocal as well. Must be hard tho
when he says "up in heaven" you can hear his soul break
yeah man his voice is shivering that is deep...
Does anyone else still get major goosebumps hearing Jimmys voice play?
definitely
So much
shit is craaaaayzaaaaay
this would be perfect with the proper volumes :/
DiAbOliCaL41 no because, i get tears
It's Michael and some chills :( he was a great guy man .... gone but never forgotten
That epic scream at 3:58
Eargasmic...
Francesco Bisaccia that would be so funny if he voice craked
It’s Literally my alarm sound it pisses my brother off haha
Verry cool
🔥🔥

DesertEagle720 He said it well
Alex Sosa 93aceboydean edited his original comment that said friction instead of fiction
He is a billionaire somewhere now
Rev we love you.
Jimmy is a legend
For those who didnt know, this beautiful song and lyrics were written by Jimmy 'The Rev' Sullivan. Thank u Jimmy for this amazing song, the entire song is a fuckin masterpiece, especially that chorus
Rat Head like most of their old song written by rev
thal *most of the self titled's songs
thanks for that info so much
Guitar solo starts, films everything except the guitar solo.
I know the drums were way too heavy I couldn't hear like any of the solo. Also, did they shorten the solo for live? It was kind of short.
@@pattysmusic524the audio mixing for this live performance was absolutely botched by the audio team of the whole event. The lead guitar (Syn) was much lower than everyone else and the balancing was all over the place

The Revs voice gave me chills
Believe me, too.
You know why Shadows screamed going into the solo? He didn't want to here The Rev finish off 'I need another chance to live...' Respect...
He always does that even when the rev was alive. Watch the LBC version.
+Robert Thatcher Shhhh, quite you might piss somebody off.
ItsRobNotBob the main reason he carried out the scream in the lbc version was so that the rev could go back to drumming for the solo while Matt did the scream

Afterlife, now as a dedication track for the rev, among a few others
So far away
N
Seize the day really tear me up most of the time
Gunslinger too.. like a modern metal ballad ..
Stoked for the new material boss!!!
did he say that or tell you that by any chance? or just fanfiction?
Anyone notice as he says "up in heaven right now" you can hear the pain
I felt that scream in my heart. Wow.
Every time I listen to Afterlife I immediately remember the first time i heard this song.......... It feels fucking good, every single fucking time!!
i love arin, he's such a good addition to the band. no one said he's trying to replace Rev, and I'm sure he doesnt want to replace him; just make him proud.
I hate the way he got replaced sure brooks probably is a better drummer but they’d told Arin he was their drummer then just boot him
I can't even begin to imagine what it must feel like to have the voice of your fallen comrade scream "I need another chance to live" right behind you just a couple of month after his death. Impressive how these guys managed to handle this.
synyster gates is one of the coolest guitarist of modern times :D
and hottest
5:24 well, I didn't expected that..
Moon Light why syn dude that?
probably the audio guy (the deathbat got him)
PLEASE GOD BRING JIMMY BACK TO LIFE
***** that escalated quickly
***** and he deleted his comment, wow
+DesertEagle720 he needs another chance to live...(get it?)
we're all waiting 5 more years and when he comes back hell be the knife master we miss you rev come back to us
I'm here once again after several years and damn that shadow scream tho
You could tell Matt was holding back tears during The Rev’s part.. RIP Jimmy
That screams tho, OMG, sent chills down my spine
My heart just melts when I hear his voices
@ Nacho Stibel
"This next song is called Afterlife, it goes out to our brother who's up in heaven right now.. The Rev.. this one's for you buddy. The last time we played at Rock Am Ring, he was here with us..... Rev we love you."

avenged sevenfold e a melhor banda de todos os tempos
Just when the rev voice comes up i fucking got goosebumbs no matter how many times i listen to this .
The dedication to Rev 😭😔
That scream! Damn
the camera work during the scream showing the tattoo on his hand was perfect.
🇲🇨 love you A7X from Indonesia 🇲🇨
the peak m shadows voice and those beautiful syns backing vocals... awesome
i wish i was there..
This song is my all time favorite song, and the fact they kept his vocals and Shadows saying "Jimmy, I miss you" in the chorus brings tears to my eyes every time...
for the rev we all miss the rev so much
2024 anyone??🥹
Mantaaaap like avenged sevenfold like like like
Vocalis terbaik selama ini...
🙄
The new Drummer makes a damn good job ....
Aminovic Pavlinski He kinda plays too loud when the Lead kicks in. But his alright
P Jn it’s actually the live mix the sound editors fucked up bad that’s why the guitars and backing vocals are so quiet
ga kerasa, ni konser udah 11 tahun berlalu, long life for avanged sevenfold, please come and visit again at indonesian
Amazing voice
Best avenged sevenfold era. Matt best vocal. Best perfomences
I miss him very much~!
His voice is so nice~!
Like walking into a dream, so unlike what you've seen.
So unsure but it seems, 'cause we've been waiting for you.
Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste.
Of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway.
I see a distant light, but girl this can't be right.
Such a surreal place to see so how did this come to be,
Arrived too early.
And when I think of all the places I just don't belong,
I've come to grips with life and realize this is going too far.
I don't belong here, we gotta move on dear, escape from this afterlife.
'Cause this time I'm right to move on and on, far away from here.
A place of hope and no pain, perfect skies with no rain.
Can leave this place but refrain, 'cause we've been waiting for you.
Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste.
Of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway.
This peace on earth's not right (with my back against the wall).
No pain or sign of time (I'm much too young to fall).
So out of place don't wanna stay, I feel wrong and that's my sign.
I've made up my mind.
Gave me your hand but realize I just wanna say goodbye.
Please understand I have to leave and carry on my own life.
I don't belong here, I gotta move on dear, escape from this afterlife.
'Cause this time I'm right to move on and on, far away from here.
Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you.
This place full of peace and light, and I'd hoped you might,
Take me back inside, when the time is right.
Loved ones back home all crying 'cause they're already missing me.
I pray by the grace of God that there's somebody listening.
Give me a chance to be that person I wanna be.
(I am unbroken, I'm choking on this ecstasy.)
Oh Lord I'll try so hard but you gotta let go of me
(Unbreak me, unchain me, I need another chance to live.)

the rev we love you buddy !! Missing you a lot bro !!!
I love this concert, angry scream from shadows 👍👍
Got major chills. Damn
oh man wie doll kann man diese gruppe nur liebeen
I wish i was there
Why the volume of the guitars are so low ?
RedSPINE sound guys fucked up
They always fuck up at Rock Am Ring. Vocals way too loud, bass too loud, drums too much treble, and guitars too quiet.
For headliners band feels better:(
Yes the guitars of synyster gates so low
Sound Na Gandeng
One of M. Shadows best performances
Arin actually is filling in REV's drum set really well... that's my opinion... I love arin... he's really a great drummer.
When the revs vocals are played I get the happy chills
Hearing The Rev's voice made me tear up a bit
pay attention that matt always have sunglasses during this song,,, can you think how he feels everytime he hearing The Rev singing '' I need another chance to live!!! '' ?
I can the feels he gets from losing his best friend
It did for me aswell when I saw them live. Especially during Critical Acclaim.
me too
One of my fav pieces ,
they used the revs voice for the part before the solo, god damn I miss him
The Rev is my God he's all of our legend he's always watching over ever van love you Advenged sevenfold
I love avenged sevenfold...!!!
I cry every time I see this
i miss them so much!!
While Matt is talking about Rev, his voice is shaking... It makes me emotional everytime.
foREVer
The most best heavy metal band on Earth.
8 years ago today. We miss you Jimmy
that scream... i could feel his emotions....
I Love This Band And This Is With No Doubt My Favorite Song. foREVer..
They miss him so much
Esta es la cancion favorita de a7x del que me enseño todo lo que se de rock 🤘🤟
They have the best live performance🤘
